IPv6 is great because it has more available addresses. Like a lot more. And all of those addresses are important when everyone is running around with a tiny computer in their pocket, and all of them need a network address.

IPv6 is worse because those addresses are nearly impossible to memorize and a pain to read at all.

An IPv4 address looks like: 192.168.10.1
An IPv6 address looks like: 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334

If you had to setup a network for yourself, which would you choose?
